Hey everyone,
since ~2026.3.5.0 the installer does not close the rdm window upon installation.
I suspect this behaviour comes up if the setting "Reduce to tray icon/taskbar on close"

Regards,
Daniel.
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the report, and you’re right about the setting. Since 2026.3.5.0, when “Reduce to tray icon/taskbar on close” is on, RDM treats the installer’s close request like a click on the X button, so it goes to the tray instead of closing. We’ve found the cause and will fix it in an upcoming version.
Until then, you can exit RDM from the tray icon (right-click > Exit) before you start the installer, or turn the option off while you update.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks again for pointing us to the setting.
Best regards,
David Hervieux
